My Beloved Pipes

These are my beloved smoking pipes, thought i'd give everyone an introduction and run down on them, since people have been asking about them.

Pipe smoking has become a good part of my life. My playing cards, my pipes give me a semblance of peace and offers me a recluse from this crazy crazy world we live in now.

Below are the tobaccos i currently have in my rotation, and in the future when i try out others i'll update the list then. For now:

Cool @jin-out
Very interesting video thanks for sharing about your pipes.
I do not smoke tobacco, i gave that up awhile ago.
Nicotine free now:)
If i was to smoke now it would be a mixture of marshmello, amne and raspberry leaf.

Does the tobacco clog up a pipe fast? I only use them for weed and that can get pretty messy.

Hmm...the tobacco doesn't clog up the pipe per se...it's the mixture of condensation and the tar/ashes that would clog up a pipe during smoking.

Condensation happens when the briar pipe is burning too hot, due to either saliva re-entering the pipe from the mouthpiece during smoking (happens to me sometimes when i'm clenching the pipe in my mouth. I hear the salivation goes away as one grows older...the body gets drier...a sign of bodily wear and tear), or from the tobacco being too moist.

But after every smoke the pipes are cleaned with pipe cleaners dipped in white rum.

I smoke cigarettes often and cigars occasionally. Not so much a heavy smoker anymore. The pipe has always been something I've wanted to try, thinking as a way to remove a few more cigarettes out of my life. Cigarettes are far too convenient. Can see the pipe ritual being beneficial. More of an event than a crutch.

I use glass pipes for weed. They get all gummed up and clogged really fast. To clean those I use butane, it goes through a filter, then I evaporate the solvent, and I'm left with a substance similar to hash oil or resin containing leftover THC that was stuck in the tar and whatever else. Can do it with alcohol as well but the evaporation process takes more time.

Here ya go, introducing you to Mutton Chop Piper's playlist on the art of pipe smoking, from basics to advance techniques:

I think you'll enjoy pipe smoking very much. Since you're in Canada you should mainly be able to get American blends; it'll be harder to get the ones in my video as they are mostly English or European.

I know of a good smoke shop a few hours away (I choose to live in the middle of nowhere). Plenty of imported cigars so I'm sure I'd find a good selection. Costly though. They like to tax here and try to ruin the fun. Surprisingly, once weed was legalized and taxed, the prices still beat the black market.

Thanks for the link!

Most welcome Man!

Here's a the site of American Blender GL Pease. Their blends are exceptional: https://www.glpease.com/Articles/Latakia.html (i was reading about the Latakia leaf, which has become my favourite, found in the Peterson's Nightcap and Macbaren Latakia Flake that i love)

And here is a pipe smoking blog that i love reading. This entry is on the Abingdon blend by GL Pease...which i cannot get here in England. https://dutchpipesmoker.com/2018/12/24/my-no-1-abingdon/

Crazy internet already has me going down the Kinnikinnick rabbit hole. Was looking for first nations sources. Their tobacco products are usually top notch, pure, organic; all that good stuff.

Sorry to bombard you, but just wanted to introduce you also to Matches860, rest in peace.

He was the first guy on youtube to inspire the youtube pipe smoking community. Savineli even created a pipe in honour of this man...called "The Friday Savineli".
